Chapter 130: One Banquet and Two Openings to Change the Genealogy
readx;? Xiao originally wanted to ask her own mother to find out the ugly Yinmao, who knows her mother, I don't know whether to say that she is open-minded or whether to say that she is virtuous, and to succeed such a big matter, it is up to her father to decide alone, and he doesn't even care much about the internal reasons.

Zhou didn't know what her second daughter was thinking in her heart, she was educated since she was a child, and in her opinion, being able to marry Xiao Qi in this life was really a blessing that she had cultivated in several lifetimes.
The husband is a famous calligraphy and painting master all over the world, and he respects himself, that is, she has no children in her life, and her husband has never expressed half of his dissatisfaction, and later comforted her, saying that he has no children in his life.
Zhou believes in Buddhism, she is deeply convinced that she can have such a subordination in this life is the blessing of her previous life, and she feels that she can't be too greedy, so for the matter of succession, she only thinks that she can listen to her husband, so she doesn't ask too much.
knows the daughter Mo Ruomu, but this sentence is usually said in reverse, so although Xiao didn't ask anything from his mother, he also knew that he had to find out about this matter from his father.
Obviously, this time is not suitable to ask, Xiao Shi thought about it, the other people who came to this banquet today do not need to say, but the Shen family and his party must stay in the Zhuangzi for more time, after all, the Shen family is the Xiao family's in-laws, and he always has time to ask his father to understand, so he is not in a hurry at this moment.
The succession needs to open the ancestral hall to enter the family tree, originally only needed to be a witness between the clan elders and relatives, and other people just came, and they couldn't enter the ancestral hall, so it stands to reason that so many people should not be invited.
However, Mr. Lishan's uninhibited and uninhibited nature is well known to the world, and this time it was a good succession ceremony, but he also posted that he was inviting someone to participate in his closed disciples. But this heir and the disciple of the closed door are indeed the same person.
As soon as he succeeds to his own son, what kind of closed disciples are accepted, isn't it a repeated move? Most people say that we don't understand the ideas of the masters.
Mr. Lishan wants to accept disciples and say early, I (my son/my grandson/my nephew...... I want to apprentice for a long time. There are also some people who are slowly unhappy with this freshly baked Xiao Xiaogongzi who occupies two pits by himself, and they are interested in seeing how he can be so valued by Xiao Qi with three heads and six arms.
The masses who don't know the truth said that although they don't understand, they look quite powerful!
......
If other people are simply watching the excitement or mixing their faces with Mr. Lishan's golden signboard, the elders of the Xiao clan basically have a black face this time.
How can such a clan event be taken out for others to watch!!
What's more, they are the Nancheng Xiao family, a big family with a head and a face!
As soon as several clan elders entered the Xiao Mansion, they were taken by their subordinates to a place dedicated to receiving the Xiao clan, and they did not mix with the guests outside, but this did not prevent several clan elders from inquiring about what was going on in front of them.
As soon as they heard that they were all invited to participate in the apprenticeship banquet behind, the elders of the Xiao family who came this time couldn't help twitching the corners of their mouths.
When did the stepchild heir be so solemn, and his lover came to the apprenticeship banquet on the same day, in other words, when can't he apprentice?!!
The anxious elder had already shouted at his subordinates: "Go, hurry up, call your master over to me immediately, I want to ask him, what do you want to do?"
"Yes, hurry up and call Xiao Qi's little rabbit cub out, he has lived to the belly of a dog all these years, and he actually feasted guests when he opened the ancestral hall, does he still have our Xiao family in his eyes......"
"Naturally, there is the Xiao family in my eyes. Xiao Qi walked in and saluted several elders one by one, especially the old man who seemed to be still angry who was cut off by him at the end, Xiao Qi even walked in front of him and bowed, "Second uncle, I'm tired of your old man this time." ”
This second uncle can be regarded as the longest generation of the Xiao family in the capital now, he is too old, and he rarely goes out, Xiao Qi did not expect that this time the clan was led by his old man.
Xiao Qi miscalculated his status in the Xiao family, the current Xiao family is not as good as before, there are many children and grandchildren, and there are really not many who can really get it, otherwise the clan will not always care so much about Xiao Qi's succession, and I really don't want Mr. Lishan's name to disappear with him.
It's just that if the matter of succession is left on others, maybe it will be subject to the arrangements of the clan, but Xiao Qi can't.
and Xiao Qi's name of Mr. Lishan, who is all over the world, is also known to the world as well as his uninhibited character, to put it bluntly, Xiao Qi is not happy, if the clan has to force him to do it, one is not good, he can make some other troubles, so no matter how worried the elders of the Xiao family are, they dare not really force him.
Seeing Xiao Qi saluting himself so respectfully, although the second uncle was angry, his face eased a little, "It's nothing, how can you not come to such a big thing." It's just that you don't think the second uncle is talkative, although this matter is a happy event, why should you avoid today, today is a major event for us to open the ancestral hall, how can so many outsiders come to watch?"
"Second uncle, it's not an unsightly thing for me Xiao Qi to have a stepchild, presumably relatives and friends are also curious, so it is better to simply invite relatives and friends to witness together, and it just happens to let my son recognize people. ”
The others still had opinions and were about to say it, but they were stopped by the second uncle raising his hand, joke, at this time, it was obviously wrong to say anything, didn't you see Xiao Qi's kid's face I have a good son and I am proud of it, obviously the words of the elders in the clan have no effect except to annoy people.
This person has lived a longer life, after all, he is still more transparent than others, forget it, anyway, it is not good to let Xiao Qi take care of his succession, so he doesn't ask for so much.
As soon as he thought about this clearly, the second uncle sighed, and his tone loosened a little: "Since you have made your own decision, we old men won't say much." It's just that a few of our old men won't mix up at your banquet, and when the ancestral hall is opened and the family tree is on, a few of us will go back first. ”
Out of sight and out of mind, I thought it would always be okay like this, but before the second uncle's words were finished, Xiao Qi hesitated with a difficult face.
"What, this can't work?" the second uncle asked with a frown.
Standing behind the second uncle, an old man in his fifties and sixties with small eyes shouted at the moment: "Presumptuous, Xiao Qi, you have eaten the courage of an ambitious leopard and still want to press a few of us old guys to make face for you?"
"Don't dare, don't dare, the fourth uncle misunderstood, how dare Xiao Qi be disrespectful to you. Xiao Qi hurriedly apologized.
The small-eyed fourth uncle was about to roar again, but he was glared at by the second uncle, muttered twice and didn't speak again, but Xiao Qi repeatedly challenged the bottom line and authority, and the second uncle was also a little dissatisfied, "Why did you hesitate just now?"
But no matter how you say this, you must still have the consent of the clan, Xiao Qi simply said about the matter he had just decided.
After hearing this, the second uncle stared at Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi's face was respectful, and he couldn't help but think secretly, if the second uncle had a cane in his hand at this time, maybe his old man had already hit him with a cane.
But there is no crutch, and the second uncle pointed at Xiao Qi's hand and dotted Xiao Qi little by little, as if this hand was about to slap him in the next second.
"No, the succession is different from others, how can it be easily changed. The second uncle waved his hand pointing at Xiao Qi behind him, and the other hand pulled his beard and walked back and forth a few steps, his hurried steps showed the contradiction in the second uncle's heart at this time.
The small-eyed old man who had just been suppressed by the second uncle immediately jumped out, "Xiao Qi, you kid is too presumptuous, you don't take the clan seriously, there are rules for this succession, you actually want to change the rules of the ancestors, I think you are stupid to read." ”
In the Xiao clan, it was not only the second uncle and the small-eyed old man who came this time, but these two were older, and the others were mainly based on these two people, so they didn't say much, at this time, they were shouted out by the small-eyed old man, and several other people also disagreed with Xiao Qigang's proposal.
"The fourth uncle is right, Si Yang (Xiao Qi, the word Si Yang), it's not that the brother said you, you said you, you are too bold, you want to play new tricks in this kind of thing. ”
"Yes, if you think about it, the succession is no better than others, and I have never heard of that family like you. ”
"Didn't you still accept him as a closed disciple, in that case, why do you have to come up with these moths in the matter of succession. ”
......
Blessed to the heart, everyone in the Xiao clan suddenly thought that it would not be Xiao Qi, this kid actually didn't want to succeed, and it was estimated that he would come up with such a plan to plug the mouths of a few of us!
Everyone who was still denouncing Xiao Qi invariably stopped their voices and peeked at Xiao Qi vaguely, as if they wanted to see if this kid really wanted to do this, or if he just dug a pit and waited for everyone to jump down.
Xiao Qi is also a person like a human spirit, and he immediately knows what is going on when he sees everyone's expressions. I couldn't cry or laugh in my heart, but I also had to explain a few words.
Although Xiao Qi himself admits that sometimes he may not be very reliable, he really didn't think of any changes in the matter of succession, but he just ......
Plans can't keep up with changes!
Who would have thought that Xiao Maohua, well, the child who is about to be adopted would be so assertive.
Originally, today, for the master's succession, Lishan Zhuangzi was full of joy up and down.
At this time, Xiao Maohua found him and said that he didn't want to succeed.
Xiao Qi almost had the urge to pull off all his beards at that time.
Succession is not a trivial matter, and it is not completely unruly to give people a post to invite people, and it is necessary to explain the reason clearly on the post.
This type of banquet is actually similar to the 100-day banquet and the weekly banquet, and the function is to announce to relatives and friends that this baby will be our family in the future.
Everyone said that he Xiao Qi acted unscrupulously, and now he also deeply understood the tangled expression of hatred and love on the face of the person who said this, because he was sure that he was also this expression now.
Everyone is invited, ready to open an ancestral hall, you say you don't succeed?!
Well, well, it's not that it's not overstepping, it's just that it's not on the family tree for the time being, that's not good, it's not good if you don't go to the family tree!
When he heard the news, Xiao Qi felt that he was so angry that one Buddha ascended to heaven and two Buddhas went out of his body, and he finally had some reason to calm himself down.
After listening to Xiao Maohua's reason for being a little child, Xiao Qi was relieved and sad. I don't care so much about it, I just think about what to do if I want to achieve this goal.
So......
This time, everyone from the Xiao family who came to Lishan Zhuangzi saw Xiao Qi, who was rare and polite, and everyone was frightened by 10,000 points.
Although, there are very opinions on Xiao Qi's succession matter, but no matter what, this succession is still Xiao Qi's own family business, and the succession is also the bloodline of the side branch of the Xiao family, he wants to be happy to come like this, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, and others can't say anything.
It's just that this method also made the second uncle and others have some opinions, and after opening the ancestral hall, they barely left a meal to save face.
Other people don't know about these things, but Xiao, the daughter who came back to help, knows that the uncle in the clan is in such a hurry, but he doesn't know what it is, and he is a little worried for a while.
"Mother, do you want to know what's going on, I know!" Shen Junqian whispered to the identity of the Xiao family.
Xiao Shi really wanted to be distracted, and was startled by Shen Junqian's words, patted her lightly and said, "What are you doing!"
Shen Junqian pouted dissatisfiedly: "Mother, how can you say anything, you wronged me! I won't tell you." ”
Xiao Shi reacted at this time, what did his daughter just say, and hurriedly grabbed Shen Junqian, who was about to run: "Okay, okay, it's my mother's mistake, my mother apologizes to you, okay? Tell me what you know?"
Don't blame Shen Junqian, she is too familiar with Lishan Zhuangzi, since returning to Beijing, she has to come several times a year, and the maids and wives in the courtyards and mansions all know each other, she thinks she is bored and takes the brothers and sisters of the Shen family around, who knows that if she is not careful, she will hear the words of Xiao Qi and the elders of the Xiao clan.
"Uncle Xiao Maohua doesn't want to adopt!" "Both parents are dead, and postponing the adoptive must not be reactive. Regarding his conclusion, Shen Junqian nodded secretly in agreement.
It's just that these words startled Xiao Shi a lot, and he almost made a sound, looked left and right and saw that he didn't notice his side, and quickly pulled Shen Junqian aside, "What's the matter, you tell me everything you heard." ”
even forgot to investigate the matter of Shen Junqian running to eavesdrop, which shows that he is really eager to know.
Shen Junqian didn't expect that she would be able to listen to the words when she was wandering around, but she was still a little far away, and she didn't hear the words completely.
I only know a rough idea, probably her cheap uncle Xiao Maohua proposed not to change the family tree for the time being, and then change the family tree after the age of sixteen, and now only apprentice first.
Xiao frowned after hearing this, if he doesn't change his family tree, he doesn't want to be a succession, he only changed his family tree at the age of sixteen, how to listen to how unreliable, Xiao is not stingy to think about people in a bad way, but he doesn't want to talk to his daughter about this, he just wants to ask Xiao Qi for a while.
Most of the people who came today were invited to participate by Mr. Lishan who wanted to accept the closed disciples, although it was clear that Xiao Qiding was accepting this closed disciple as his heir, but the host did not say that he was a guest and tacitly did not mention it, but only congratulated Mr. Xiao Qi on accepting a good disciple.
Xiao Maohua, the little kid, was also pulled out like a monkey and watched from top to bottom, and received countless praises and gifts.
After sending all the guests away, only the Zhou family's maiden family was left in Lishan Zhuangzi, and there were still people in the Zhou family.
However, the people who came from the Zhou family this time, except for Zhou's sister-in-law, that is, her brother and nephew, Zhou's sister-in-law is not young, and this trip is not strong, so she only rests in the room, and the backyard has become a place for Shen Junqian's sisters.
Xiao finally had the opportunity to ask Xiao Qi about this succession.
"Dad, you hurry up and tell me, I'm still in a fog, what's going on with this succession, why did the uncles and elders in the clan go in such a hurry?" Xiao Shi didn't beat around the bush, and asked bluntly.
Xiao Qi smiled and said, "When did you become so impatient when something happened, it seems that Jitang has been sheltering you from the wind and rain on weekdays!"
"Who else can you do if your husband doesn't shelter me from the wind and rain! Oh, dad, don't change the subject, that's not what I'm asking. ”
"What can happen? Isn't there nothing? Okay, it's all about thinking too much, with your father in town, what can happen at home!" Xiao Qi replied casually while drinking tea.
Xiao Shi felt that she was worrying about it in vain, she was in a hurry to be like this, but after all, the matter of adoption still had a great impact on her parents, she was married for so many years, and she already had three sons and one daughter.
Who knew that my mother didn't know what to ask, everything was up to my father, and my father wanted to come out and forget it, but now it is obvious that he is careless in addition to the above things.
Xiao Shi suddenly felt that he came to block his father and asked, it was really a bit of a superfluous move, and he couldn't really let go of it, so he said faintly: "I heard that Maohua didn't change the family tree, what's the matter?"
"Changed. ”
"Although it is said that my father and mother like ......" Xiao Shi still wanted to persuade Xiao Qi, but suddenly heard two words, and was stunned, the words that were originally going to be said could no longer be said, and the words in his mouth turned a few times, and when he came out, it was already "How did I hear that you didn't change?"
"It's time for you to change your name to call him the fourth brother!" Seeing that his daughter wanted to know, Xiao Qi put down the teacup and explained simply.
